Family Law

Mediation saves heartache. You get to work with your spouse using the mediator to come to a peaceful solution to end your marital relationship on your terms. Mediation allows you to honor your marriage and show your respect for the other person through negotiation and compromise. For divorcing parents, mediation can set the foundation for a successful co-parenting relationship.

Civil Litigation

Mediation is effective. You, and/or your attorney can work strategically to come to a creative resolution to complex litigation matters. Whether it is construction, employment, discrimination, wrongful termination or personal injury, our mediators will work to come to a solution that each party can accept. You are then free to move on with your life and leave the litigation behind you.

Trust & Estate Dispute Resolution

Death of a loved one can raise a variety of emotions causing strife among family members that never existed before or to emphasize strife that has existed for many years. Beneficiaries to an estate will feel comfortable with our mediators to work through all the issues one-by-one, listening to each point of view, and patiently uncovering an ultimate solution that everyone can accept.

Why Mediation?

Mediation is a process that puts your court case in your hands, instead of in the hands of a judge. It allows you to sit down with an experienced neutral who will help keep delicate discussions from erupting into arguments and will guide you to a resolution through negotiation and compromise. Mediation saves money. Because both parties usually share the cost of mediation and the cost of mediation is substantially less than the cost of litigation (going in front of a judge).

Mediation is often required in most law cases: Most courts require mediation or alternative dispute resolution prior to trial. Mediation can be scheduled with a Judge not assigned to your case, a volunteer mediation service, or through private mediators. Smythe & Jones offers the flexibility and commitment to resolving your case prior to trial as private mediators.

Mediation saves time. It can take months of hearings to resolve the numerous issues in any court case, and it can take months to get a trial date. Typically, your trial date is assigned approximately one (1) year from the date of filing your initial action. Trial dates can get continued and this can only prolong the resolution. Mediation can be completed on your timeline and your schedule. It can be done early to save months of time in litigation or it can be done after the information is exchanged so that the facts and issues in the case have been exposed.

Please contact our office if your preferred date & time is not available.
